Something
Matters
Abi Reeves
matter into matter,
stardust into desert
dust, just
life cycling
energy turning:
old stars are burning, leaving
space for space.
invisible rays and waves defy
nothingness, showing something,
flowing, breaking time
apart, bending sound and light
around. See the cosmic background glow,
know of things before this
and things to be,
for instance (or eternity):
the miracle formation of bright
blinking stars, born
when blinking eyes
see
boundless nights, fall
shut forever, trailing stardust in
blind legacy.
